Another lockdown… another commute

[OhOh]

whatever makes up the other 82%?

The top panel shows Tomato sauce and pastry, both shown but no % indicated.

The ingredients' panel shows all the ingredients, I believe in descending % of weight is the UK standard.

You may wish to educate her about how much these benevolent charities spend on admin and pay their so call chief execs et al. They don't get mine any more, most are thinly disguised money making machines who hide behind their original raison d'être - sadly.

Same here, I don't give any of them money. I used to give blood but that go too hard in the UK, I had either travelled to the wrong countries or had acupuncture other than on the NHS. I'd still give tangible things like food to a food bank though. I'd probably choose baked beans or something a bit easier to eat than a tinned pie though. Not everyone has an oven. Myself included.

^ I seem to remember that you were the only person in the entire world I'd ever heard about who had TWO convection ovens? I've been holding you in very high regard since I discovered that... maybe wrongly?

A convection oven is perfect for a Fray Bentos pie.

A convection oven is perfect for a Fray Bentos pie.

I did have two air fryers until the larger one self-destructed. The smaller one is okay for a couple of sausages or a portion of frozen chips. Unless those tinned pies are much smaller than I remember then they wouldn't fit and they'd be tricky to cut in half.

It is about 0530 on a cold morning where you are. TD can wait until breakfast, or pub opening, or pub closing perhaps.

^ My body clock is still on nights... I'm wide awake by 4am most days and at a loose end before it gets light.

[Headworx]

Hey Mendip, FYI you can get all of this in Thailand now.

[Shutree]

Time to get in the early morning run. Did you buy some new trainers?

[Mendip]

^^ I don't really need that kind of information to be honest mate, but thanks anyway!

Those kippers look good!

^ Yeah, got some nice new trainers but it is bladdy freezing outside. I seem to have lost all resistance to the cold and no way could I live here again. Although in saying that a couple of long walks with a mate and his two collies may happen up on the Mendips this weekend.

Is that a euphism for "I'm going dogging?"

[Stumpy]

Hey Mendip, FYI you can get all of this in Thailand now.

I gotta say, it seems most of the food posted by you UK folk seems to be packaged, canned, frozen, processed food. Do you guys really eat all that crap frequently and comment on how good it is?

Just asking....

Jast a suggestion Shu - perhaps part with 1200THB for a new one

Those sausage and bean melts are brilliant.

Having tried it I'm not sure about the whole top-loading thing. I'm not especially dextrous and getting things in and out without burning some part of me seems difficult. Also none of the ones I see around looks any better built than the Otto pos that exploded. I did look on Lazada and the Philips XXL is about 25K. Ouch.
I might just get myself an oven. Or eat out more.

It seems pulling a box of e-numbers out of the freezer and bunging it in the oven allows more time for photographing the results and uploading on here.

It’s all a question of priorities, I guess.

He doesn't half love his processed British food though, our headworx!




What would he do without Siambury's?

I would get one of those table top square ovens, you can get one for c5000THB at a decent size double glass front and rotisserie. Bought one 5 years ago and its still going strong.

I've tried the sausage rolls before (wasn't particularly impressed) and won't be trying any of the other items, but thought Mendip and possibly others would like to know. Had some roast chicken leftover from lunch and salad in a multigrain wrap for dinner tonight which is typical, but too boring to post a pic of. Sorry if that upsets you.

They're not from Siamburi's.

[armstrong]

It's got Villa written all over it. Mostly because that's where I buy them from.

[hallelujah]

.

How could I ever be upset with you?

You're doing a sterling job of flying the flag for our great nation and its food.

Keep it up mate.

[Headworx]

^Do us all a favour and fuck off elsewhere to another thread to make a total cvnt of yourself. Thanks.

[cyrille]

Do us all a favour

What, all the posters standing behind you while you display the extent of your obsession with England, while being too much of a wuss to even declare your own nationality?

Got any names ... 'cos I don't see anyone.

[armstrong]

No sausage but got a mince one.



Won't have it for dinner today, will think about it all day tomorrow and get in the mood.

Are you sat close to a box of tissues?

[cyrille]

It does seem like he has all the ingredients there to push him well over the edge.

Correction: No beans. Should be able to get home safely.
